Miscellaneous
- Family: Feldspar
- Region: North America
- Mined At:
- Raw Mineral: Yes
- Generic: No
Notes
The company was introducing this January 2007 and claimed: "A high quality sodium/potassium/calcium aluminum silicate, ground to 200 mesh for ceramic applications. Carefully beneficiated and controlled for quality, it offers a high alkali content and low iron oxide content per unit of alumina."
Cone 11 fired flow tests beside MC K-325 show this to melt much better even though it is a larger particle size. It also melts much better than Custer or G-200 and the melt flow is whiter than G-200 and much whiter than Custer.
